85. Mr. Brockway

asked the Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations if Elizabeth Mafekeng, a refugee from the Union of South Africa, will be given security of residence in Basutoland and facilities to earn a livelihood.

Mr. Sandys

Residence in Basutoland is governed by the Entry and Residence Proclamation, 1958, as amended. Mrs. Elizabeth Mafekeng has applied for a permanent residence permit in accordance with the Proclamation. Her application is being reviewed. Meanwhile, she is living in Basutoland and there is nothing to prevent her from earning a livelihood there, if she wishes.
